Am I the only one who doesn't care about the World Cup?

RealLifePixel could care less.

Nil-nil draws are boring, part of the excitement is the deadlock being broken.

There is certain amount of irony in someone blatantly advertising a website where the idea is to watch a basically static image in the hopes that something changes whining that 0-0 draws are boring.

It's like a train spotter calling a bus spotter a geek.

Look, you take our sports..like football.. and call it soccer, you take our game of rugby and call it football..you take out game of rounders and call it baseball.. so, if you haven't anything useful to say, then STFU... ;)

nah...just kidding m8..you have your right to freedom of expression, just use it criticising your own sports..oh but you can't, as you haven't invented any of your own yet...:P

No you STFU.

1. We don't play rugby it is a different game, quite obviously.

2. The same goes for rounders.

3. You called the game, soccer, first.

4. Basketball was invented here.

Mmk?

And you won't. I don't like the game as much either but I am a sports fan and can watch it..sometimes. As a matter of fact, I think I like it better than baseball.

To me, both games kinda suck. You just don't know whether you'll get an exciting game or not. I've seen baseball games where there'd be high score like 15 -13 but all the fucking scoring came after the 6th inning. Wtf?

I'll keep mainly watching my football and basketball 'cause I know there'll be excitement throughout the game. I think in soccer, because there is a lack a of scoring, when someone finally does score, it's a damn fireworks display for the fans. Most of the matches I watch though lead to disappointment.

To your title, I say World Cup Schmorld Cup. I'm watching the NBA Finals.

Btw isn't it odd that we are almost in July and the Finals are still goin' on?:blink:

is it baseball where you merkins have the world series even though it's just american teams?:unsure:

Agree. :mellow:

I also think that before TV became a household item, that we had several other sports in the USA that had become quite popular. ie - football/baseball. When TV came about, they started televising those sports instead of soccer, and so started the separation of interest and it's been exponential ever since.
